I just came back from holiday for a week and was lightly burned/tanned from the first few days, but yesterday I lathered up in sun lotion, went for a swim and thought "eh, what the heck, it's a bit cloudy anyway and i'm under a parasol!". Literally. I'm fucking RED. RED all over. It's already better because of lotions n stuff but ever since yesterday/this morning during my sleep & all day, i'm going INSANE because of the itch.

Idk if anyone here has experienced it, but as I'm typing this It's like I'm possessed by a demon, going fucking insane, can't sit still for one second because of the never ending ITCH! It's like literally bugs are eating me from the inside, HOURS on end.

My partner went to bed already, I tried but no way josé. I decided I'm going to stay up, distract me as best I can and play some games, drink lots of fluids, browse reddit etc until my eyes can't take it no more and I literally fall asleep where I stand (sit).

Has anyone had this before? I've googled it and only a 5-10% of people can have this thing called "Hell's Itch" which makes you almost go insane for +- 48 hours until the burns heal...
